So I know this has probably been mentioned somewhere but I haven't seen anything. What the heck has happened to Kevin Brown?

I like the guy singing the Star Spangled Banner.  Solid.

Nice pace by Andre Wilson - Buck will be happy!

In Norfolk. Kjerstad laced a line drive to right center for a triple. Joey followed up with a hard hit double to left. Almost had a HR earlier in the AB, but it hooked foul.

DL Hall is sitting 96-97 on the stadium gun. Just got a guy looking at 97 on the outside corner. Mostly changeup for the secondary. Maybe 1 curve so far. Not a lot of command of the changeup. The curve got hit hard, but Ortiz made a very nice play to his left.

As I write this, he throws 2 tremendous changeups with fade. Changeup was about 85.

Full house tonight.

Big games for DL Hall to see if he can be of use this pennant chase.

Good 1-2-3 inning.

Well, it's been Scott Garceau, Geoff Arnold, Brett Hollander and Melanie Newman, but I haven't heard Kevin.  

And he last tweeted in mid July, after being a very regular poster on that site. 

I haven't seen that he's doing anything for ESPN, tho I may have missed that. 

Maybe he's just on vacation, but it just seems really weird for him to have just disappeared.

I'd never imagine the OF we have tonight.  Man the stadium is packed.

Fastball is 94-95 in his second inning of work.

Is he not doing the radio?  If he is totally gone it would be odd.  

Only reason to be quiet about the change is if maybe he had some family issues or was sick himself.  Or he did something the club didnt like.  Otherwise I think they would of told us why he isnt here.
